Clever play by Severino, letting that one go by and playing it off the wall.

He's a sly one...

Time to call up Diaz to play left everyday at least until Hays is back.  I'd have Diaz starting in left Saturday night. 

I mean, McKenna is already on the roster. Even if you're not gonna call up Diaz there are options. Heck even Mancini is better.

The biggest problem for MC is someone has to go if he can't play the OF. Hate to see a young guy become a full time DH.

Yeah, but a solid offensive player who coughs up all the offensive value he produces using his glove is worthless.

And so glad we got out of that inning.  Yuck.

Not according to the radio guys, who say he took a lazy dive. However I am posting this after another showcase by MC. I don’t hate him, but I sure hate his left fielding. He shouldn’t be playing left field he should be a DH or first and eventually that’s where he will be. Until then we have to deal with things like this, and it apparently bothers you less than it bothers me.

Opinions vary. DROP it!

He honestly didn't have a lot of challenging plays last year in the outfield. It pretty obvious when he has to make anything other than a routine play, he's going to struggle.

Eh, I dunno, I remember a couple times where he had to run down balls and I was impressed.  They weren't super challenging plays but I remember thinking he covered a good amount of ground and took decent routes.

He seems be struggling so far this year, though.

I think we should move Mancini back to LF and play Mount at first. I thought I remembered him being pretty good there but maybe I'm imagining it.

[PeteCanes]

Way back?

[Surhoffan17]

At least we made up for a rough inning by coming back and going out 1-2-3.

Nice call Scott!

[Moshagge3]

Shutdown inning. 

[Yardball85]

Oh Scott.... not even close (though it did have a good sound. 

[scbalt52]

Yeah I also thought that was gone
